Knowledge of high-pressure thermodynamic properties of iodine containing
oxides and acids is important toward improving the accuracy of
semi-empirical predictions of extreme condition explosive and combustive
chemistry of iodine containing formulations. Here we report on the synthesis
of explosive chemical products HIO3 and HIO3O8 and on the structures and
isotropic equations of state up to 35 and 45 GPa respectively. EOS model
parameters are provided including parametrized exponential-6 interatomic
potential values used to conduct thermochemical calculations of iodine
containing reactants.
